NLKBM Sound Biblical Doctrine Hour

This week we continue our teaching on faith and how we cannot stagger at the promises God has for us.  Hebrews 11:1-13, Romans 4:20-21, Psalm 37:3-5

This week we continue a teaching that started during our midweek Bible study on Faith.  In order to please God we have to stand in faith.  In order to stand in faith we may have to separate from some people to include other believers if they try and dissuade us from being in faith.

This week we take a look at Zerubbabel and how God sent a word to encourage him through the prophet Zechariah.  Like Israel and Zerubbabel we often times face enemy opposition which can cause discouragement or we can become indifferent to the assignment God is calling us to do, but we must understand it is not by might nor by power, but by the Lord's Spirit that we will do what He is calling us to do.  No matter how many natural resources or people we have none of it matters if it is not driven by the Holy Spirit.  Unless the Lord builds the house then it is done in vain.

This week we discuss how we have to renew our minds as we keep up with the Holy Spirit.  There are three types of people the person who is not born again, the spiritually mature Christian, and the carnal Christian.  We have to look at which one we relate to.  We tend to celebrate people who are carnal Christians but that was not something to be proud of when we read the Bible.  What will help us to go from being a carnal Christian to a spiritually mature Christian is keeping up with the Holy Spirit and renewing our soul.

This week we talk about how God will allow His children to experience the wilderness, trials, and tribulations because He loves us and is testing us.  Even though it may feel like we don't want to go through it, we want to give up, or we made a mistake we should understand according to the Bible we are right where God wants us to be.  The Holy Spirit will lead us into the wilderness and is right there with us even though it may feel like He is not with us. Romans 5:1-5, James 1:2-4, Matthew 4:1-11, 1 Peter 4:12-13, Hebrews 12:6, Revelation 3:19, Job 1 & 2
